One Redditor’s unique outlook on productivity may make your dreams come true
Anyone who’s used the internet (and Reddit in particular) is aware that much of the internet is a valueless wasteland. But every so often, you stumble along a gem, submitted by an anonymous stranger seven years ago that has the answers to every question you asked.
The No More Zero Days post by /u/ryans01 is one of those posts. His post was in response to a Redditor who was depressed, feeling bad about themselves, and didn’t know what to do to make their life better.
Ouch. Sounds like you’re having a tough time max. That sucks. I’ve been there, so I kinda know what you’re talking about. I’ve been in the ever circling vortex of self doubt, frustration, and loathing. It’s no bueno. I know. If you don’t mind lemme tell you a couple things. You can read em if you want, read em again later if you feel like it. But honestly man, if I spend all this time typing this out to you and you don’t let it be a little tinder for your fire, well, you’re just letting us both down. And you don’t HAVE to do that. You don’t HAVE to do anything. But you get to choose.(Who am I? My name’s Ryan and I live in Canada. Just moved to a new city for a dream job that I got because of the rules below. I owe a lot of my success to people much cooler, kinder, more loving and greater than me. When I get the chance to maybe let a little bit of help out, it’s a way of thanking them.)
I could summarize the post for you, but I think that would ruin how good it is. Instead, I’ll break it into the four rules and quote each section for you.
